      We have a content box at the bottom of our website with a scroll bar and have posted a fair bit of content into this area (too much for on page) granted it is a combination of SEO content (with links to our pages) and informative but with the over optimization penalty coming around I am a little scared if this will result in a problem for us.

      I am thinking of adopting the process of this website HERE with the content behind a more information button that drops down, would this be better as it could be much more organised and we will be swopping out to more helpful information than the current 50/50 (SEO – helpful content) or will it be viewed the same and we might as well leave it as is and lower the amount of repetition and links in the content.

      Also we sell printed goods so our titles may be a bit over the top but they are bring us a lot of converting traffic but again I am worried about the new Google release this is an example of a typical title (only an example not our product page)

      Thank you for any help with these matters.

        hi

        hard to tell if you actually can't visit the site,but in a nutshell #1 = quality of your content or content is king

        #2 if you sell those products yeah categorize them, no worries.

        #3 google does not list you because of the design, so it is your choice, but is as #1, as customers want easy to access products.

        what ever works for your customers best!

        regards,

        jim cetin
